No and the standard (Cosworth designed) one is better anyway.

oops, sorry.

Be careful of cheap manifolds though, they have a habit of cracking. I have an OBX manifold that's been re-welded and that works fine but it would be nice if it hadn't cracked in the first place.

Actually all the manifold/runners on the exhaust of 'Blacktops' don't match. So this wouldn't be any worst than any Ford (NA or Turbo) or OEM manifold.
